Ischaemic stroke subtypes and associated risk factors: a French population based study

Abstract: This comprehensive prospective population based study has demonstrated that vascular risk factors exhibit a particular distribution according to the ischaemic stroke subtypes. These findings, as well as the great frequency of hypertension among stroke patients, have implications for prevention strategies, the design of clinical trials and the organisation of health care services.

“…[11][12][13] Strokes in patients who were >85 years of age accounted for 30% of first-ever strokes in our study compared with 16% in Dublin and 18% in Oxfordshire. 11,12 The proportion of firstever ischemic stroke at ≥80 years of age was identical to the Dijon stroke study at 43%.…”

“…The majority of subtyped first-ever strokes were ischemic (84% [95% CI, 78-88]). Intracerebral hemorrhage comprised 11% (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16), SAH 3% (1-6), and 3% (1-6) were undetermined.…”

“…In two recent population-based studies focused on a predominantly White population, a high incidence of the LAA subtype was reported, which might be related to the stroke pathophysiology classification system used, distinct of the classic TOAST classification 5,8 . In our study, the incidence observed could be explained by the prevalence of risk factors and possibly genetic susceptibility, because most of the Brazilian population has some amount of African genomic ancestry, and it is recognized that ethnicity is an important contributor to atherosclerotic risk factors 3,6,7,27,28 .…”

Previous population-based studies reported the incidence and mortality of ischemic stroke (IS) subtypes in different settings, most of them on the White population from high-income countries 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 . In Latin America, there is only one study, which was conducted in a Spanish and Mestizo population in Iquique, Chile
